Favorite Quote: There are many… here is one. “Words make you think a thought. Music makes you feel a feeling. A song makes you feel a thought.” -E.Y. Harburg
Top 3 trend setters across all industries: Right now? For me? …Twitter and its “Tweeters”.
What is a major cultural trend to look for in 2010? Believe it or not social networking is going to reign supreme and become even bigger and even more relevant.
What current project are you working on that is occupying a lot of your time? Branding my label HOLLAFAME MUSIC and the “Free Nightz and Weekendz” concept. Oh, and penning and producing records for some of the biggest artists in music via Universal Music Publishing.
How will you change the world before the age of 30? By capturing and expressing the thoughts and experiences of my generation through music, television, film and new media/ 2.0 marketing via my Lifestyle Brand HOLLAFAME. May not change the world, but I will stick a flag in it and leave behind a legacy.
Have you chopped up ‘Rich Girl’ by Hall & Oates and served it to Drake for ‘So Far Gone’, yet? If not, when are we going to make this happen? Is this a personal request? I sampled it years ago. It depends on how much publishing they want these days…
Editor’s Note:
JFK is the mix of a savvy executive and a talented creative. He produces, raps, and runs a business. As a twenty-something he could easily be tempted to party and BS his days away but he has work to do. His work ethic will separate him from his contemporaries when all is said and done. Whatever the time, you can always catch him at freenightzandweekendz.com or @JayFreshKicks
